Like his work or not, Neal Young is fearlessly devoted to his creativity. He does what he wants without looking back to check for followers. He is singularly devoted to his creativity; it’s his life not his work. He doesn’t think about being different so that his work is easily marketable. Instead, he is genuine and protects his authenticity, therefore he’s different by design.

Passion. Neil Young is an owner of his passion who fearlessly shares it with others through his craft. He is creative in a way no one will commoditize. You don’t get this from Crowd Sourcing over the internet.

Your creative source is unique, it’s your experiences and your emotions about those experiences. Tap into those and communicate it well, your creativity will lead to innovation that is impossible to commoditize.

Referring to dry periods, he says they’re relief, don’t fight it, walk away. Talking about his inspiration he says, it’s going to happen if you stay open; If he feels it, he’s open to it. Don’t think about it, accept what happens. Respect the gift; respect the source.

Neil Young has a direct line to his emotions, his creativity is not over-thought, over-prepared or forced. He ignores everyone. He’s the prototypical creative soul.

I almost never comment, but I browsed a few of the responses on Neil Young and a
video interview by Charlie Rose | Permission To Suck.
I do have a couple of questions for you if you do
not mind. Is it only me or does it give the impression like some of these
responses look as if they are coming from brain dead folks? And, if you are writing on other online social
sites, I would like to follow you. Would you make a list of every one of
your shared sites like your twitter feed,
Facebook page or linkedin profile?
